question 38

Multiple Choice

Consider the getArea method from the textbook shown below: public int getArea()
{
If (width <= 0) { return 0; } // line #1
Else if (width == 1) { return 1; } // line #2
Else
{
Triangle smallerTriangle = new Triangle(width - 1) ; // line #3
Int smallerArea = smallerTriangle.getArea() ; // line #4
Return smallerArea + width; // line #5
}
}
Assume the code in line #3 is changed to:
Triangle smallerTriangle = new Triangle(width) ;
This change would cause infinite recursion for which triangles?

• A) Those with width equal to 0.
• B) Those with width equal to 1.
• C) Those with width greater than or equal to 2.
• D) Triangles of any width.
